The New York-based initiative of the Goethe-Institut and German Films collaborates with local partners to bring the best of contemporary and repertory films from Germany to U.S. audiences.
On Goethe on Demand, the streaming platform of the Goethe-Institut, we present a variety of online film programs, film festivals and film series that can be streamed from home. More information about the alternating film series can be found here. The films are presented in original language with subtitles. They are accessible online and free of charge after registration.
Our film archive contains films from the beginnings of film in Germany (German Expressionism) to New German Film and the latest German tendencies and productions. Our stock comprises approx. 800 films with a broad collection of feature films, documentaries, short films, children's films and animated films.
